Plagiarism policy.

All programming assignments and homeworks are due by 11 a.m. on their respective due dates, unless otherwise noted.  Programming assignments and homeworks must be submitted by uploading them to the moodle class Web page, unless otherwise noted.   The late policy for programming assignments is as follows: 10% off if submitted within 24 hours of the due date; 20% off if submitted 24-48 hours after the due date; no credit if submitted two days or more after the due date.  Late homeworks will not be accepted, unless otherwise noted by the instructor.  Extensions will not be granted except at the instructor's discretion in documented cases of extreme hardship.

Grading for graduate students in 5273 will be evaluated separately from grading for undergraduate students in 4273.  As the occasion warrants, certain assignments may have a higher degree of difficulty for graduate students.

All programming assignments must be written in C and compiled for execution on the Linux operating system in the CSEL Linux cluster, unless otherwise noted.
